CHICAGO. Oct. Although a very fair bust
ness was transacted in the wheat market to-
day, it was on the whole less active than yester-
day The feeling, too, was weaker and prices
ruled slightly under the closing quotations of
yesterday, finally closing 403sc lower for Octo-
Der unchanged for December and NC higher for
May chan yesterday. There was some pretty
fair selling on Eastern account and some APP
parently on foreign orders. Advices reporting
the stock Of wheat in Liverpool We're conflicting
some private cables early in the day showing
about 900 900 bushels decrease. and other par
ties later received cables purporting to show
about 500,00J bushels increase. The nature of
these reports influenced strength early and
weakness later Deliveries on October contracts
were fair and centred mainly in the hands of n
firm reported to have been the principal buyers
for October the past three weeks or more. Re-
ceipts at winter wheat points were much
smaller. but larger at Minneapolis and Duluth
